The Commercial Appeal will move from its longtime home at 495 Union to Peabody Place’s Pembroke Square in May, according to a post on the newspaper’s website Monday afternoon.
Gannett Co., the paper’s owner, announced in April it had sold the Union location to a group called Twenty Lakes Holdings LLC. Owners then gave a one-year timeline to find a new office location for the paper’s staff.
Here’s what Mike Jung, president of The Commercial Appeal, said of the move in a blog post Monday:
“We are thrilled to be moving into Pembroke Square and being a part of Peabody Place, a hub of activity in the heart of Downtown Memphis.
“While 495 Union has been a great home during the past 40-plus years, it will feel good to move into a more modern space that will better serve our needs now and in the future.”
